Twenty men and one woman were practicing meditation with a Zen master.
She was very pretty, even though her head was shaved and her dress was plain. Every man secretly fell in love with her.
One of them wrote her a love letter, insisting that they meet privately. She did not reply.
The following day, after the master gave a lecture to the group, she arose. Addressing the one who had written her, she said: "If you really love me so much, come and embrace me now."
